I grew up in Jackson Heights, Queens where I witnessed first-hand the destructive effects of uncontrolled immigration. I attended Fordham Prep and Fordham University from where I received a B.A. in Mathematics, an M.A. in the History of Christianity and a Ph.D. in Historical Theology. I have taught theology at St. Peter’s College.

I have lived within the current boundaries of the 18th Congressional District for over 29 years. I currently live in Hawthorne with my wife and three children. We are members of Holy Rosary Parish. I am not a career politician. I worked for AT&T in White Plains for 21 years as a computer programmer and network administrator.

I want to represent YOU in Washington. Let me know how you feel about these and other issues by e-mail at jim@jimrussell2010.com.
